About this listen
Health, clarity, peace, and power appear to be the greatest goals of life, and core principles of consciousness and human desire, how they are harnessed in life, determines one's success or failure. Perhaps you are one of those still struggling to access the inner and true version of yourself.
Accessing Your True Potential: Four Core Principles to Being the Best Version of You is a holistic self-driven approach to accessing your true potential, by overcoming your daily struggles with the implementation of six action pillars.
The author identifies the concept of daily struggle and the fact that life doesn't have a finish line, other than death, as two important concepts people need to understand. He also presents specific details on how you can be your best version by understanding and implementing routines in four specific areas of your life.
You will understand what the author described as the four wheels of life that you must get spinning by using various routines. As these wheels spin, slow at first and faster with more attention, you will see your best self appear more often throughout your life. And as that best version begins to be more present in your daily life you will reap the benefits of your true potential.
The wheels identified in the book are:
- Health—Good health is presented as a must for those who wish to maximize their true potential with emphasis on nutrition and fitness.
- Clarity—Ability to stay focused with an emphasis on self-awareness and emotion control
- Peace—Ability to strive for peace at all times with special interest in family relationships and spiritual health.
- Power—The ability to reach your true potential through continuous knowledge acquisition formally and informally.
This book will serve as a handbook for those who want to stay motivated amidst life challenges.

The answer to the questions above is self-discipline.

A nutritious diet is very essential. There should be a lot of fruit and vegetables. Keep away from unhealthy food. Stay away from junk and processed food. Don't take fatty or fried food too much. Eat healthily. Take steamed meat and barbecue. Stay away from smoking and liquor. Exercise is a must for a healthy life. But most of the time it is difficult to go to the gym because of the jam-packed schedules. You can train even without going to the gym. You can spend a few minutes on a quick walk to the next bus stop.

Depression is something we all dealt with either personally or have witnessed its impact on others around us. It affects our intimate relationships, drastically impacts our sex life, and affects our children, spouses, and family. If not dealt with in a healthy way, it takes over our lives. Our problems become our only focus. After some time, it only leads you further into the abyss and lessens the likelihood you’ll ever regain control of your thoughts. Even if you’ve tried everything you can think of with no success, you can finally gain control of your thoughts.

As much as we might try to resist, endings happen in every moment—the end of a breath, the end of a day, the end of a relationship, and ultimately the end of life. And accompanying each ending is a beginning, though it may be unclear what the beginning holds. In How We Live Is How We Die, Pema Chödrön shares her wisdom for working with this flow of life—learning to live with ease, joy, and compassion through uncertainty, embracing new beginnings, and ultimately preparing for death with curiosity and openness rather than fear.

Memories are the cornerstones of our identity, shaping who we are, how we act, and how we feel.

But how do we make and keep the memories that bring us lasting joy? The Art of Making Memories examines how mental images are made, stored, and recalled in our brains, as well as the "art of letting go" - why we tend to forget certain moments to make room for deeper, more meaningful ones.
